                                        %ALIENATION 730905

     Associates who can not or will not  communicate  with
each  other are alienated.   Scientists and non-scientists
often find it difficult, if not impossible, to communicate
fully  with  each  other  and  so  exist  in  a  state  of
alienation.    They  tend to live in different  states  of
consciousness.   The alienation originates in and tends to
accentuate  their differing states  of consciousness.    A
feed-back  loop process continues to accentuate alienation
until through a miracle it becomes possible for each  self
to accept others in their differences and their integrity.

     When  there exist closed groups---there is a tendency
for communication between closed groups to be delegated to
specialists  who  are  expected  to  serve  as  emissaries
carrying  information between groups.    Such  specialists
will  serve  to  reduce the alienation between the  groups
only to the extent  to  which  they facilitate  additional
communication  between  typical members  of  the differing
groups.    If   typical   members   consider   inter-group
communication  to  be the exclusive responsibility  of the
selected  emissaries, then alienation and misunderstanding
will most likely continue.

     There  is  a growing awareness among scientists  that
they  need  to send emissaries out  among  non-scientists;
lest  the  non-scientists,  through citizen  power,   take
political action to reduce science taxes.   Yet,  if those
emissaries  do  not  facilitate broader  dialogue  between
scientists  and non-scientists  the alienation will not be
reduced.    This will  certainly  be  the case so long  as
typical  leading  scientists  regard such emissaries  with
condescension,   as  has  often been the  case  in  recent
history.

     Too  often members of closed groups can perceive only
what  members  of  other closed groups  might  learn  from
self's  closed  group.    Rarely  is  there  a  reciprocal
perception.  Too infrequently do scientists perceive  that
there  is  much  of importance with they might learn  from
non-scientists---so  as  to  become  more   effective   as
scientists.    As scientists learn from non-scientists the
non-scientists  may  become more  open  to  learning  from
scientists---thus   reducing  alienation.    In  this  way
science courses may come to have greater carry-over  value
to non-scientists, helping them engage in constructive and
wise political action.
